Aurora lights shimmering over Earth were filmed on camera by Russia's Space Agency Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergei Kud-Sverchkov from the International Space Station on Tuesday.
"During yesterday's strongest storm in two decades, there was plenty of red glow. It felt as if we were literally sailing inside that light," Mr Kud-Sverchkov wrote in his Telegram channel.
The phenomenon is caused by solar storms emitting high-speed charged particles colliding with gases in Earth’s atmosphere.
The most common colour seen during this display is green, although other colours such as pink and red are sometimes visible as well.
On Monday night, the Northern Lights spectacle could also be seen across Irish skies.
